is this obj the same like a Poser-Figure? (Newbie question...)

Posted 27-Nov-2007 6:38 AM

Hello,
from the first look I was in love with this obj-file, availiable in the shop:
Gollum
But as an Poser-newbie, I am not sure, what could be done with it in Poser, becaue it is an obj-file.
Is it the same figure-type like Michael or Vicky or ApolloMaximus?
Can I move the extremities, the eyes, head, lips and so on like the original Poserfigures?
(I would like to aks the author himself, but cannot fnd the option to contact him)

Thank you for help

Holger

I took a look at the product specs. It says "not jointed", meaning of course that it is a solid object. It can be imported to Poser or DAZ Studio, but cannot be reshaped. Of course, you could always take Michael or David. even Vickie for that matter and come up with a similar look. I have done it quite accidently a few times. LOL

Thank you very much, MysteryD!
For me as an non-ntive english-speaker and newbie it is hard to understand the whole matter and all those technical phrases.
Now I know better - thank you again.

Creating a truely looking Gollum with Mike or vicky is too hard for me. I would rather spend money for a high-quality-figure, but there is no- not anywhere.

kind regards

Holger

Ya might want to check out DAZ Studio. I have not seen all the objects that they have for sale, just not enough time to go thru the entire site. I buy many objects from them. They may have what you are looking for. Not sure but worth a shot. Watch out though, VERY ADDICTING. LOL

If you want to use this nice Gollum as a full featured Poser character, I can help. I can turn the .obj file into a posable figure, so that you could animate him and make him talk and smile inside Poser. Please, contact me for details directorbox@gmail.com
